Handbook of the Modern Development Specialist

July 13, 2017

Created by the Responsible Data Forum, this handbook is offered as a first attempt to understand what responsible data means in the context of international development programming. The authors have taken a broad view of development, opting not to be prescriptive about who the perfect “target audience” for this effort is within the space. This book builds on a number of resources and strategies developed in academia, human rights and advocacy, but aims to focus on international development practitioners. The handbook includes chapters on project design, data management, collection, analysis, sharing, and more.
